After being the top hitter during the season, sophomore Kayla Ouellet continued her pace for the JU softball team in the postseason en route to earning Atlantic Sun Conference All-Tournament honors.
The Orlando native batted a team-best .417 (5-12) in three starts while driving in the game-winning run in JU’s extra-inning win over Campbell on May 13.
“Kayla elevated her play in the tournament and played a key role in our post season,” said JU head coach Amanda Lehotak. “We knew having Kayla back and healthy would be a big part of our potential success which turned out to be the case.”
In 2010, Ouellet earned first team all-conference honors after finishing the season with a team-best 66 hits, 32 runs and 16 stolen bases. She jumped to the team lead in hitting after a 10-for-21 effort (.476) with six RBI in five games at the USF Under Armour Invitational (3/5-7). Ouellet had a season-high three hits on four occasions during the first week of March and drove in two runs in four straight games (3/6-10).
